Witnesses

A FILM BY Vinko Bresan

Witnesses takes us back to the turmoil in the Balkans. But the movie is not directly about the war. It is a cleverly told murder mystery.
-Wesley Morris, BOSTON GLOBE

Synopsis

Set amid the atrocities of war in the Balkans, "Witnesses" is retold, Roshoman-style, from various characters' viewpoints, adding new information about the complexity of war and humanity. Beginning inside a rustic house with a woman in black (Mirjana Karanovic) standing beside her husband's coffin, "Witnesses" interweaves the stories of a small town confronting ethnic hatred and deep moral ambiguities.
